I am trying to add and remove apps from an App Bundle. If I look at the app bundle when it is live, I do not see an Edit button (instead there's an Arrange button). If I remove the App Bundle from sale (uncheck "cleared for sale"), I get an edit button. Then, I add an app to the bundle (or remove an app from the bundle), but on save, message is:
Error encountered saving or updating bundle: Attempt to add or remove apps from a bundle that does not allow editing.
How can I add or remove apps from an app bundle in Tunes Connect?
Email with iTunesConnect Support (2016-11-05):
To answer your question, no you can not change the app bundle once it has been approved. In order to change it, you would basically need to create a new app bundle to submit for review. Here is a link that has some frequently asked questions regarding bundles:

I have upload build in app store after archive the file it will goes to uploading builds on that time i got this error

3.ERROR ITMS -9000:"The bundle identifier cannot be changed from the current val;ue,'com.redim.pokerastic'. If u want to change your bundle identifier,you will need to create a new application in itunes Connect."at softwareAssests/SoftwareAsset(MZItmspsoftwareAssetPackage)
Please any one help me out dis problem.
This has happened to me a lot of times. To fix it, you should first delete your previous provisioning profiles for your application, then go to developer.apple.com and create a new provisioning profile for App Store
Then, choose the correct bundle ID (try to not use a wildcard ID) and choose the certificate that you would like to include in your profile. Make sure that your provisioning profile is named your app name (pokerastic) instead of com.redim.pokerastic, then download it and open it.
If you do not have any certificates, go to developer.apple.com and click the plus sign to add a new certificate.
Choose App store and Ad hoc then do exactly what it says to do. Make your certificate, upload it to Apple, then open up the download that Apple gives you.
In iTunesConnect, make sure that the bundle IDs of your applications match. You can find this by clicking manage applications, then clicking on the app you would like to upload, and in the top left it should say the bundle ID.
Finally, in Xcode under your application manager, click the target app then click 'General' at the top. Make sure that the bundle ID is the same as the one on iTunes Connect, then make sure the versions are the same.
The error it gives you states that your bundle IDs do not match, so make sure that they do. If you want to change it, you're going to have to go to iTunesConnect and create a new application with the same bundle ID that you have in Xcode. Make sure the one on iTunesConnect has the bundle ID com.redim.pokerastic
I am facing a strange issue that I have never faced before. I created a new appID with new Bundle ID, but it is not showing up in itunesconnect "Bundle ID".I googled it and i found some questions regarding this, but only questions there are no answers on it. is there any way to tackling this issue, any help much appreciated.
Thanks.
Try to sign out, and then sign in to itunesconnect site. it worked for me
I just had to create an App Id and then log out of iTunes connect and back in again.
iTunes connect is truly awful.
I've seen this happen myself from time to time, but so far it's always been down to a delay in iTunes Connect and has sorted itself out without me doing anything other than waiting!
Like this guy here, the solution for me was wait, so apple could process my new id. (about 6 hours or so).
For me it was to check the removed apps list — someone has already used that Bundle ID and removed the app associated with it before.
for me i sorted it out by emailing to Apple about the issue, then i got solution for that.
Edit
At that time when i had that issue, nothing did work for me i tried reload, refresh, sign out, restart system, nothing worked out.
I left with no option but to email to Apple on their support email, they fixed that manually for me. now it could be possible with reload page or sign out and sign in i am not sure.
Well there is nothing specific in email to apple on there technical support, just mention you are facing that problem, they might set this up manually for you. hope you got it.
Login to member centre and create a distribution profile using the same app id which you are going to use in the iTunes Connect. Then logout from iTunes Connect and Login again and try. It will show the Bundle ID in the drop down menu.
Hope this will help you.
If you tried to create the app record and if the app or bundle id does not appear:
In order for you to be able to see the app record in iTunes Connect, the team agent of the account must login and adjust your settings so that you are able to view the app.
Please provide the team agent with the following steps to add your access to the app.
In the Users and Roles pane, select the user you want to edit by clicking on their Apple ID.
Select the Roles pane.
In the Apps window, the team agent can add the newly created app to the users access, by selecting the down arrow in the window, and choosing the new app.
Once the new app is added, click Save.
Once this information has been updated by the team agent, you will be able to view the app in iTunes Connect.
Refreshing and sign out/signing in again doesn't worked.
In my case what worked is to contact apple support team for the concern, they added it manually and it was there after waiting for 24 hours.
For me the issue was that we had previously deleted/archived the apps with such bundle identifiers. But this was long long time ago, I didn't even remember that. So they just had to be recovered in iTunes Connect.
https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/
Have you ever heard 'XC Wildcard-' option to create new iOS or tvOS app creating new bundle ID on AppStoreConnect platform? Yes it is possible with 'XC Wildcard-' option. So if your bundle ID does not appear on the AppStoreConnect;
Click + (Plus button) and Select the New App option.
Enter needed informations and choose 'XC Wildcard-*' option from Bundle ID section.
After that, you'll see Bundle ID Suffix text box. Enter your bundle identifier there and
Click the Create button.
If your bundle id is not using from other apps, your app will generated successfully. Otherwise, you can change your bundle id and you can create your app on AppStoreConnect.
for me the solution was to resister a new id, then choose this id and save, then logout again and login and now you can see your bundle id.
To get rid of this issue, I create separate profiles for my extensions and app targets as well that are definitely paired with single app id. I had SiriKit extensions in my app and multiple targets along.
These Steps Worked for me.
Logout from itunes connect
Login to apple developer account
Delete existing identifier
Create new identifier with Explicit radio box checked next to BundleID
Login to Itunes connect again
Hopefully you'll be able to see bundle identifier there.
In My case, I've Just removed an App From AppStore Connect(Not yet released into AppStore). But I can see that THE APP IS NOT COMPLETELY REMOVED, but categorized under "Removed Apps". Now I want to create a new app in Appstore connect using the same bundle ID that I've used in the app that I just removed, But my BundleID is invisible while creating new App. I've just Mailed Apple regarding this. Will keep you posted on this.
I've had this same issue a few times, and it's been for different reasons. Here's a few things to check:
1) Did you set the developer profile in xCode? When you create a new project it sets the developer ID, so if you're trying to make a new one to.. lets say... do an ad-hoc release, it won't be present in the old project. It's set in targets>build settings>code signing
2) Download your profiles from the organizer. New profiles need to be loaded into xCode
3) Close/quit and reopen xCode, sometimes it breaks.
4) Try doing a clean
It seems that in Xcode 13, for new apps the app's Name, Bundle ID, etc... is set within Xcode during the upload process.
I've been trying to learn how to do my first facebook app. The directions at developers.facebook.com/apps/407656052586647/summary?web_hosting=0 asks for my ios bundle id.
I've looked on this website, and Bundle ID Suffix? What is it?, discusses it (assuming bundle id and bundle suffix id are the same), and it sounds like it's linked to the apple id. I'm just developing the app and don't have an apple id yet, assuming it's tied to distributing the app to itunes. Which comes first, the chicken or the egg? I haven't even written the app so how could I have an id for itunes? I saw this Bundle ID for App submission iOS, but I'm absolutely not ready to submit it to itunes.
I read somewhere on this site that I need to go to xcode ->resource->settings bundle to create a bundle for the project. Would I put every file for the project in the bundle in the finder window?
Also, the hackbook example, referred to in http://thinkdiff.net/facebook/how-to-develop-facebook-application-for-iphone/comment-page-1/#comment-293743, in step 3 (it's calling it demoApp, but the name I found is Hackbook, but it's working as an example so far anyway) refers to setting the kAppId. Their link to create an app id doesn't work. Would it be the same as what I'm doing at developers.facebook.com in the first paragraph of this question above? Would this app id be what I get from a successful submision at developers.facebook.com/apps/407656052586647/summary?save=1 ? I see they are listing an app id and app secret code there, but it's not working because I don't have an ios bundle id? Would the bundle id be my bundle name (drag contents of xcode project in)?
Thanks for any help you can provide...

There's no need to worry about submitting the app to iTunes yet.
In order to get your app working with Facebook, you'll need to access https://developers.facebook.com/apps.
From there, click "Create New App"
Simply specify App Name. App Namespace is not needed at this point and is optional.
Click Continue and you're new Facebook app will have been created. From there, you will be provided your App Id. Use your Facebook App Id in this line of code:
[[Facebook alloc] initWithAppId:#"<APP ID GOES HERE>" andDelegate:self];
Your links dont work, but I think that they refer to the bundle ID on developer.facebook.com where you will need to create an App ID and use it in your iOS app. Did you do that already? Thats definitely a prerequisite before you even deal with itunes.
This seems to be a popular question so I thought I'd add some more info on what I decided to do. After I created the app id at the facebook developers link, I wound up using ShareKit2.0 to get the newer version of ios to work. The Hackbook/Demo example at the link above is in the older ios version so I couldn't get it to work with ios5. It was helpful to use the Hackbook to figure out what I needed for permissions, but that's it. I wound up following the SharKit2.0 directions (not at their website, go to the git version that the community is currently updating). Static Facebook sdk has no .m files in it
The directions that are at the link were helpful to create and start my first facebook app including app id. I never wound up doing anything with Bundle.
I already filled the all details for app through my iOS Developer account and submit the app for review to the app store but for some reasons i take my app back and delete all the details for particular app from my developer account but now when i again trying to upload the app for review it shows the Name already exist because of my app is submit with the same name again how can i over come this problem i want to upload my app with the same name again.
Thanks In Advance...
It seems you deleted your app, so you can't reuse the App Name.
From iTunes Connect Developer Guide:
If you have created an app in iTunes Connect that you no longer need
to see or manage, you can delete it from your iTunes Connect view.
IMPORTANT: Deleting your app will not allow you to reuse your SKU or
App Name in the same account again and you will not be able to
restore your app once deleted. If you have uploaded a binary or set
up this app for the iAd Network, your Bundle ID will not be reusable
either.
Apple has introduced the possibility of deleting an app. Quoting the iTunes Connect guide:
If you have created an app in iTunes
Connect that you no longer need to see
or manage, you can delete it from your
iTunes Connect view. Deleting your app
will not allow you to re-use your SKU
or App Name and you will not be able
to restore your app once deleted.
So far so good. Then it gets slightly confusing:
If you are selling your app to another
developer for their own distribution
and need to remove it from your iTunes
Connect account, we recommend that you
use App Delete so the App Name will be
freed up for their use.
Does this mean that I won't be able to reuse the name in my account, but other accounts will? Has anybody tried this?
Please see Removing an App From Sale (page 92) section on iTunes Connect Developer Guide 6.3
Click "Rights and Pricing"
Go to the sale territories section. There is a link near the end
Click on the "Deselect all" button to uncheck all App Store territories.
Click on the "Save Changes" button.
After removing all assigned territory checkboxes from your app in the Rights and Pricing section,, the status
changes to Developer Removed from Sale and your app will not be seen on the App Store within 24 hours.
It's possible to salvage the situation. I also made a mistake and forgot to type com.XX part when entering the Bundle ID. My app was not live yet, but once you submit BundleID, it's not possible to change it.
What you can change though, is the "App Name". Thus:
Change the app name into something bogus
Add new app, now using correct Bundle ID and type the original name
Re-upload everything
You could reuse the App Name of the app you have deleted if you change the Default Language of the application information.
Full details here: http://hesh.am/2012/01/recovering-a-deleted-app-name-in-itunes-connect/
I just ran into this today trying to submit my app. I used an incorrect bundle ID and nievely assumed that deleting the app from iTunes Connect would release the app name and SKU for me to reuse when I recreated the app. Not so. Now I get these two errors:
The SKU number you entered has already been used.
The App Name you entered has already been used.
You are correct when you say their documentation is confusing. What the heck is "App Delete," and how is it any different from the "Delete Application" button in iTunes Connect?
I only hope I'm not screwed with regards to my app name being unavailable forever. I've contacted Support so here's hoping...
Simple steps for Deleting/Removing app from iTunes Connect:
iTunesConnect>App>Rights and Pricing>specific stores> Deselect All> Save
Change app status: Developer Removed From Sale
After 24hours app will be removed.
when you delete an application from iTunes Connect you can't upload with the same App Name and SKU in the same developer Apple id. This resource is for migrate an App for another company or individual developer. Ex. when an App was sold.
Follow Below Steps
Login into your iTunes Connect with your developer id: https://itunesconnect.apple.com
Click on App Icon
Click on Rights And Pricing
At the bottom This app will be on sale in all App Stores worldwide.
Or, you can select specific stores “here”. Click on here button to open all specific app stores.
Click on the “Deselect All” button to uncheck all App Store territories.
Click on “Save Changes” button.
Now when you save all these and go to back to your App icon home screen. There will be one more button appear “Delete Application” after “Set Up iAd Network”.
Click on Delete button and read instructions.
Your app will disappear from the app store within 24 hours.
Refer to: see Removing an App From Sale (page 92) section on iTunes Connect Developer Guide 6.3
Follow Instructions Below:
Click "Rights and Pricing"
Go to the sale territories section. There is a link near the end.
Click on the "Deselect all" button to uncheck all App Store territories.
Click on the "Save Changes" button.
Now when you save all of these and then go to back to your App icon home screen there will be one more button that will appear called “Delete Application” located after “Set Up iAd Network”
Click on that "Delete Application button" and read instructions
After removing all assigned territory checkboxes from your app in the Rights and Pricing section, and clicking "Delete Application", the status changes to Developer Removed from Sale and your app will not be seen on the App Store within 24 hours. The name you were using for your app will also become freed for other developers' use.
Hope this helps!!!
